Great video I washed my motorcycle like this. I just let it seat for awhile before riding . Bikes get wet if not you couldn't ride in the rain lol. Keep up the work
I washed it like this before but my check engine light came on. It took two heat cycles for the check engine light went away. Electronics are sensitive even if you have the protection over the wires which I had -_-
current setup using Karcher K5 premium with its vario Lance, the preassure that came out wash acceptable for washing bikes with electronic components and its a 1 push start for this bike with ease.
I've washed mine from new to 4yrs with 40k kms on it like this and it's fine. Believe it or not you can ride them in the rain too, they arent made from sugar.
Thats so bad for the bike just use some plexi of other brand of plastic polish does the job great and way better, none of my bikes have seen water and they always Look perfect
That is just about the most destructive way to clean a bike. One might as well let a bunch of small kids "clean" the bike with their hands full of rubble... I have never cleaned my bikes with water, apart from 3 times in 34 years, and in those 3 incedents, I used lukewarm water sparingly on the parts I wanted to clean. Nowhere else. I use a bit of window cleaner or mucoff and a few microfiber cloths. I also use a brake cleaner for brake parts an donly sparingly and only once in a while. My bikes have never had a scratch, no swirlmarks and are always shiny and good looking. I wax them regularely. I will also never use brush to clean paint and the fairing glass as this guy does. A brush... Same procedure seen on american sportscar washers, who then "detail" the poor cars with polishing machines until the paint is so thin that there is hardly any left... Not a great idea. In fact I don't like that whole industry that have emerged using these methods as shown here in the video. Same with my cars. Never ever do what this guy does in the video, sparying chemicals all over with a pressure washer and spray off with a pressure cleaner. It may work on a big truck transporting goods between states. But never on such delicate fine mechanics and electronics such as motorcycles, cars and not even my racebicycles. Never. Ever. But each to his own of course. Kind regards
